cant see any of the other horses beating blue the stretch out to a 1 1/8 suits him fine.i see him winning by 3 to 5 lengths. he was lengthing his lead in the davis seems like the finish line came up to quick for him and he had a little bit of trouble in the turn in that race he seems to be a few heads above these

have to take this lyric from a rapper's song (Eminem) "Lose Yourself"....."...Snap back to reality, oh there goes gravity...." I'm just playing with you, but to even begin to compare him with Ghostzapper is kind of silly at this point.. I hope you're right and we do get to see something that special again, but Ghostzapper was a freak, he could win comfortably at an distance short to classic. On the lead, stalking, from way back..it didn't matter..he was a versitile superstar with huge HUGE beyer and other speed figs.. rarely ever exerting himself to win.. HE himself basically killed the Pletcher trained Forest Danger in the Jerome (I think) without being asked to run.. Thus far Bluegrass Cat looks one dimensional, inexperienced, and unproven. But we can still hope for lightning in a bottle though. I'm guessing NOT though, in all honesty. cr)..and by the way, I voted yes to this poll.

He will have to get the by best from the west Brother Derek and I'm not sure he can. That is if he was running in this race.. I read the topic wrong!! Sorry

tHE LONGSHOT WITH A CHANCE IF HE GETS THE RIGHT TRIP IS EL LOBO DON'T COUNT HIM OUT
It cannot be shown but I was one on the 30% who voted against Blue Grass Cat.........as it was proven he lost...it takes a special horse to win consecutive races especially graded races...

Mike Tyson was once the most feared boxer in the world until unknown buster douglass floored him...Mike proclaimed no man on earth could beat him..well he was dead wrong. any man can beat any man..heck i even believe a midget could have beating him.rofl

LAWYER RON WAS VERY GOOD AND ROLLED TO HIS BEST PERFORMANCE OF DATE. YOU NEED TO MAKE A PUBLIC APOLOGY WITH THE GHOSTZAPPER COMPARISON....PERIOD. BUT IT'S COOL WITH ME, NOT BAD TO HAVE ENTHUSIASM... BUT BOTTOM LINE: BLUEGRASS CAT TOOK A STEP BACK AND LOST GROUND IN THE LANE TO THE STRONGER ALBERTRANI HORSE. IT'S A BAD SIGN; AND OVERHYPING THE YOUNG HORSES WILL ALMOST ALWAYS LEAD TO DISAPPOINTMENT. bf.
